The implementation of the proposed road bridge Kinshasa-Brazzaville is hopeful for ECCAS, said Olivier Kamitatu.

 "The construction of infrastructure in the transport sector for the realization of the proposed road bridge Kinshasa - Brazzaville is hopeful in the space of ECCAS. The physical work is very useful for opening up Central African countries from Kinshasa Brazzaville-Kinshasa - Libreville - Douala, for a corridor of regional integration.

The proposed construction of the bridge remains a consensual project of ECCAS member states, a project promoting regional integration.
The construction of this bridge does not adversely affect the erection of the deepwater port at Banana, Boma and Matadi.

On the contrary, it will boost the DRC’s economy, because a study of the World Bank and other partners has demonstrated the profitability of this project as well as the construction of the railway-Kinshasa Ilebo.
